My thought as well. Have you been hacked? Now you have!

So I am supposed to access a website that I have never heard of and enter my E-mail and password???

What could possibly go wrong?



If the lamb voluntary climbs into the lion's mouth, is the lion still at fault if it eats the lamb?

I think I will give my address and door key to some strangers and they will promise to tell me if my house is vulnerable for burglary.

Quite a few years ago I was hacked so badly that I couldn't fix things fat enough, I'd fix one thing 10 others would go down!! All I could do was format the drive, atleast I had a ghost backup, though a few months old. Since then I installed Avira and Comodo firewall.

Never trust everything the internet tells you. Especially crap like this. Cause it'll get you in the end.
